Hi I’m new to this group, didn’t expect to be here got diagnosed with a tumour in my bladder last Thursday which was a massive shock, but it’s posistioned on a diverticulitis within my bladder, where the muscle lining is thinner, I’ve had a CT scan too if the cancer has spread, then I I’ll just go from there, just wondering if anyone has had similar symptoms, thanks to this community it’s a great help to speak to people
Hello Golfmadde1293, Sorry to read about your tumour. I have not had a tumour on my diverticulitis but no doubt someone in this forum has and will be able to give you some advice. Good luck with your scan results. Once you get a treatment plan things do look a bit brighter believe me. Stay well

Welcome to this friendly group. It’s a real shock to find yourself here isn’t it? I thought I’d have a stroke or heart attack but weirdly never thought I’d get bladder cancer. Others with more experience will come all to help you.i am now 10 months into my journey and found people on her incredibly helpful. I wish you well
